It’s Pride!
We March!
We Dance!
In Celebration of our Freedom!
It takes Courage Every Day
And we Dance in Celebration of the Courage to Be Who You Are!
For many Young People, it is a time for Dance Parties and showing off the Spectacular Toned Bodies of their Youthfulness!
Their Beauty and their Fire… So Full Of Wonder!
But there was a time when we danced in low-ceiling basements, hidden from the mainstream, without corporate sponsorship, and with way fewer folks lining Fifth Avenue.
We fought against Oppression and Marched Proudly for our right to exist (more…)

Awaken To a Better World
It was a mere two weeks ago.
We took to the Streets.
For what we Believe in!
I LOVE these Kids!
I LOVE them!
It would be so easy for them to take what happened and feel victimized,
Live their Lives traumatized and unable to move forward.
But they took what happened to them and used it as a Catalyst to
Vault Forward
a Positive Change for themselves and the World!
And just look how it has affected and inspired us!
Now, the question is:

World RightSide Up
Sometime within the past decade or so, I saw a Shaman for a Healing Session.
It was Fascinating and Full Of Wonder!
He danced and chanted and unwrapped from a colorful silk blanket an enormous Eagle Wing, waving it up and down over my body.
He held a long-thin-necked glass bottle filled with thick green juice and blew his breath into it, playing it like a flute.
Then he gargled the green juice and spit it all across my body. (more…)

So Much to Celebrate
Christmas is a Season, not a Day.
It is a State of Mind.
It is a Grand Arc of Unbridled JOY!
It is a Time for Unabashed Kindness and BoldFace Love!
It is too early to be talking about Christmas, of course!
The Street Decorations went up this week in my neighborhood,
And there are Ugly Sweater Cookie Cutter Sets available at the SuperMarket.
This is all about Commercial Retail Playing Us to get some coins from our purse.
Not for me.
However, the Season to focus on Spiritual Growth and JOY has already Begun!

CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA – AUGUST 13: Flowers surround a photo of 32-year-old Heather Heyer, who was killed when a car plowed into a crowd of people protesting against the white supremacist Unite the Right rally, August 13, 2017 in Charlottesville, Virginia. Charlottesville is calm the day after violence errupted around the Unite the Right rally, a gathering of white nationalists, neo-Nazis, the Ku Klux Klan and members of the ‘alt-right,’ that left Heyer dead and injured 19 others.

“If you’re not outraged, you’re not paying attention.”

Saturday August 12th, 2017
The 203rd Day of dONALD tRUMP’s Presidency,
there is a White Supremacist March in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Waving Nazi Flags and Confederate Flags, they came from everywhere.
As we have seen in the past, but the differences were noticeable:
No Hoods.
Their Faces were exposed.
They were emboldened by our current President and his HateSpeak.
I do not want my Blog nor my Writing to be about Political Rants.
My Goal is to offer something Positive out into the World.
But when one lives to witness such things as this in the United States of America…
And so many things like this…
One must speak out about it in whatever venues one has available!
And that, of itself, can be a positive thing.
To those who would say to me, “Oh, it isn’t that bad!” (more…)
